2020 Château La Violette

 391,00 NO VAT (private collection)

The 2020 La Violette is sensual, delicate and nuanced. This has come together well. Lifted floral top notes and silky tannins give La Violette a good deal of finesse. The 2020 is impeccably balanced. There’s plenty of unctuous, jammy fruit but less of the overt weight of some previous years.

Catherine Péré-Vergé showed a visionary temperament and a large dose of perfectionism, convinced that perfection is achieved by the sum of precise details. His career proved him right. She started in Montviel, reached the top with Le Gay, acquired her letters of nobility with La Violette where she reached her goal in a few vintages. She was also the locomotive of the Clos des 7 in Argentina, having been the first to build her bodega alongside Michel Rolland.

Henri Parent brilliantly continues the work of his mother Catherine Péré-Vergé (former director of Cristal d’Arc) who had awakened this 1.80 hectare jewel located in the heart of the famous Pomerol plateau. The oenological part is provided by Michel Rolland. Exuberant in its softness, this cru radiates in the mouth by its incomparable sensuality. The aromatic radiance is exceptional: red fruits and flowers mix in the most harmonious way with a touch of spices. An irresistible style rewarded with a fifth star. (Bettane & Desseauve, exceptional producer who represents the absolute top of quality, rated 5*/5)
